"The definitive Stoner/Desert Metal band. Very even keel and consistent right through. An unmistakable sound and style of their own. Great album." Reply
"If you play funny and goofy music and sing badly you will get usually praise, but not from me. Why this album, is in the 1001 Book, beats me." Reply

"Unusual for me to appreciate this style of music, but there's something about Tankian's delivery here that gets me into his riffs and soft/loud/soft variance. I wouldn't play this repeatedly at any time - but it's good for a listen from time to time." Reply

"Absolutely the best album on the earth. The story, instruments, artists, lyrics, in every way. This is a true masterpiece." Reply
"60 to 70/100 (This is a very impressive collection of many cool individual ideas and songs of distinct type that somehow never forms into a very cohesive whole.

"Ray Lamontagne's third album sees him continuing his rustic sound. It's a good record, but to me the first two tracks, you are the best thing, and, let it be me, sound like songs requested by his record company for two commercial tracks for single purposes and then he can do what he wants with th..."
